Transferring your e-mail and address book
See your old e-mail program’s online help for information on exporting and
importing e-mail messages and the address book. You can often export all of
your old e-mail messages or address book to recordable media, then import
them into your new notebook’s e-mail program. You may also want to consider
printing the old information or using your old computer to send the e-mail
messages to yourself, then using your new notebook to retrieve the e-mail
messages.
Transferring your Internet shortcuts
You can export and import your old Netscape Navigator bookmarks or Microsoft
Internet Explorer favorites. For more information, see your Internet browser
program’s online help.
Installing your old printer or
scanner
Windows may have built-in support for older printers, scanners, or other
peripheral devices. This means you do not need any additional software. Newer
devices, however, usually require your original software installation CDs or
diskettes.
